Need Help on DTC issue
Ok, I have a UK accord (or TSX), I have a issue were my ABS/VSC light remains on, It did go out for a while and all worked fine.
This light came on not long after I jet washed along the tops of the wings and edge along by the wipers. I was carefull not to get water anywere near the engine or wiring.
The ABS/VSC light will only go out if I unplug the brake fluid level connector, but soon returns. I have checked the switch operation and it all seems fine.
I have also used a OBDII reader to try to retrive the DTC from the ECU, but looking at the circuit diagram I see they are stored in the ABS/VSA unit. Am I right in thinking that with a standard ODBII reader I will not be able to access the ABS/VSA faults codes.
any advice is welcome, shame my first post here is asking for help. Been a member of THAOC for a while and used to belong to CCUK, so find forums a very handy tool

generally the abs signal/sign is either an indication of low brake fluid, the traction control being turned off manually, a bad abs sensor, or perhaps even low brake pad material. Have you checked those obvious items?
Another thing that will make the abs light come on is a bad abs circuit fuse

Would a faulty ABS sensor not registered as a DTC, the brake fluid is fine and so is the level sensor. I really do need to know how to access the ABS DTC fault codes.
I have also checked the brake switch and all connections to the ABS sensors, So still unsure what it is
